00:00Good day, these three players are after big bucks, but perhaps they'll go ahead to Whammy
00:30We have a wild and crazy group here today, don't we?
00:53We do indeed, Peter.
00:54Let's try this.
00:55Hey, you want to party, dudes?
01:02Yes!
01:03What do you think, Rod, pretty wild?
01:07I think they are ready for a party.
01:08Yes!
01:09Aren't we all?
01:10Let's party!
01:11Let's meet the three players who want to party today with big bucks, starting with our first
01:15player, Chris Leggio!
01:16How are you, Chris?
01:17Good, good, Peter.
01:18Where do you go to school, Chris?
01:19Loyola Marymount University.
01:20Sophomore, majoring in economics.
01:21Majoring in economics?
01:22Economics.
01:23That's what this show is all about.
01:24Yes, definitely.
01:25And big bucks.
01:26Big bucks, you got it right, Chris.
01:27Is this part of this crew with you today?
01:28Yes.
01:29Oh, right up there.
01:30Chris, looking for big bucks.
01:31All right, Chris, good luck to you today.
01:32The whole family.
01:33All right, well, good luck.
01:34Our second player is our champ, Kathy Bryant, with $35,250.
01:35Kathy, do you have any idea what $35,250 is?
01:36I don't.
01:37I don't.
01:38I don't.
01:39I don't.
01:40I don't.
01:41I don't.
01:42I don't.
01:43I don't.
01:44I don't.
01:45I don't.
01:46I don't.
01:47I don't.
01:48I don't.
01:49Kathy, do you have any idea what you're gonna do with all that scratch?
01:53Spend it, probably.
01:54I'm feeling somehow that you'll do that quite well.
01:56It's time to go to Europe, I think.
01:57It's time to really plan.
01:58All right, well, good luck today.
01:59Fighting.
02:00I mean, it's...
02:01Our third player is Robert Quezada.
02:02How you doing, Peter?
02:03Okay, Robert, how you doing?
02:06All right, good.
02:07Where you from, Robert?
02:08I'm from Bethel, Connecticut, nice small town in the heartland of Connecticut.
02:11Oh, nice up there, pretty.
02:12Yes, very nice.
02:13Did you come out here on vacation or what?
02:14No, I decided to come out here and live, and give California the best shot.
02:18Absolutely. Did you drive out recently?
02:20Yeah. I drove out three months ago and I love it.
02:22You love it. You'll love it better if you win.
02:24Of course.
02:25Let's see what happens. You ready, gang?
02:27Give me a buzzing answer with three spins. The most of the quiz answer gets you one spin.
02:30Here's the first question.
02:32The New York Times gives us this warning.
02:34If you drink one glass of wine a day for a year, to the nearest five pounds,
02:39how much additional weight will you gain that year just from the wine?
02:43Kathy?
02:44Ten.
02:45Is it ten, five or fifteen pounds?
02:47Chris?
02:48Going to have to go with fifteen.
02:50Fifteen. What do you think, Robert?
02:51I'll say ten.
02:52A glass of wine a day can put ten pounds on your frame.
02:55And Kathy gets three. Robert is thin.
02:59If you add the cheese and the crackers.
03:02I knew that. Ten pounds.
03:03It's like a hundred pounds.
03:05According to the phrase, what item is said to be mightier than the sword?
03:10Chris?
03:11The hand.
03:12Is it the hand, the pen or a whip?
03:15The pen.
03:16What do you think, Robert?
03:17The hand.
03:18That mightiest item is the pen.
03:20The pen is mightier than the sword.
03:21And Kathy goes to four.
03:25Chris, I think it's nice of you to spot both Kathy and Robert some spins.
03:28Now you're here to play, right?
03:29Definitely.
03:30Okay.
03:31My country, tis of thee, is one of our national songs.
03:35What country has a national song called Waltzing Matilda?
03:41Chris?
03:42Australia.
03:43Is it Australia, New Zealand or Ireland, Kathy?
03:46Australia.
03:47What do you think, Robert?
03:48Australia.
03:49Australia. You guys are ridiculous.
03:50Waltzing Matilda is a national song of our friends the Australians.
03:53Chris to three.
03:55Kathy to five.
03:56And Robert to two.
03:59Tense up game. We're getting serious.
04:02The Hebrew word shalom means both hello and goodbye.
04:05And one other word.
04:06What is it, Kathy?
04:07Peace.
04:08Is it peace, love or water?
04:10Chris?
04:11It's peace.
04:12You bet.
04:13Shalom also means peace.
04:14Chris to four.
04:15Kathy to eight.
04:16And Robert to three.
04:17You guys are heads for money when you come back after these words.
04:20Stay with us.
04:23All right, we're back for money.
04:47Over 50,000 bucks in money and cash and prizes and goodies and whammies
04:52that will take away the 50 grand, so be careful of whammies.
04:55No whammies.
04:56How about a trip?
04:57Yes.
04:58I'd like a trip.
04:59Well, our wacky circus dog will lay one on us.
05:03Aloha.
05:05There's a little clue.
05:06Who would not be thrilled with a week in Waukegee?
05:09It's Hawaii's most fabulous beach resort.
05:12A legendary paradise.
05:13And it means one of today's lucky players will spend seven exciting days and nights
05:17in a specific paradise of Waukegee.
05:20A trip worth over $1,200, Peter.
05:23All right, nice trip.
05:24Robert was playing the game before you were even starting, but that's okay.
05:27Robert's eager.
05:28He's eager.
05:29All right, gang.
05:30You want to win this round so you can play last in the final round.
05:32Four whammies will bum you to the max, and you can cash your remaining spins if you so desire.
05:36Robert, are you ready now?

10:25Guess what I've got?
10:26A tiebreaker.
10:27Three-way tie here.
10:28Here is the last question.
10:30When lava stopped spewing from Mount Etna,
10:33what Italian island breathed a sigh of relief?

10:42Is the correct answer Montelani, Capri or Sicily?
10:45Kathy?
10:46Sicily.
10:47What is it, Robert?
10:48Sicily.
10:49Mount Etna is on the island of Sicily.
10:50Chris stays at five, Kathy goes to six and Robert to six.
10:54And you know what happens next.
10:55Over $100,000 in the big board.
10:57These players are going at it.
